Described herein are polymer-encapsulated materials and a method for encapsulating materials with polymer via emulsion polymerization. The encapsulated materials include colorants (e.g., pigments and dyes, and in particular fluorescent dyes), optical brighteners, downconverters and upconverters. The encapsulated materials are produced by the emulsion polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers. The polymer-encapsulation method described herein does not require the preparation of a miniemulsion homogenized with special equipment, such as an ultrasonification device, and the resulting polymer-encapsulated materials exhibit optical properties superior to polymer-encapsulated materials prepared by processes that include the preparation of a miniemulsion prepared with such special equipment, such as an ultrasonification device.

Disclosed herein are compounds, conjugates, and methods that may be used to detect the presence of an analyte in a sample, such as a biological sample.

There are provided a wavelength selective absorption filter including a resin, and four types of dyes A to D each having a main absorption wavelength range in different specific wavelength regions, in which an absorbance Ab (λ) of the wavelength selective absorption filter at a wavelength λ nm satisfies specific Relational Expressions (I) to (VI), and an organic electroluminescent display device.

Disclosed herein are compounds or salts and/or solvates of formula I, II and III, where the compounds or salts and/or solvates have the following structures: (X).sub.a—Y—(Z).sub.b I; II; or X′—Y′ III; where X, Y, Z, Y′, a, b, R.sub.4, R.sub.6 and R.sub.7 are as defined herein.

The presence of mild electrophiles, such as aldehydes, during the denaturation of glycoproteins or glycopeptides and subsequent enzymatic deglycosylation reduces artifacts in subsequent analyses of the glycans released from the glycoproteins or gly-copeptides.

A method of adhering a first component to a second component includes priming the first component with an adhesive bond primer containing a primer material, a corrosion inhibitor, and a chemical additive (such as a dye compound), and using an adhesive to attach the second component to the first component through the adhesive bond primer applied on the surface of the second component. The chemical additive allows inspection of the adhesive bond primer with a corresponding radiation source.
